ANTARCTICA-SCIENCE-SPECIES
A picture taken 21 December 2006 shows a new species of Epimeria, a 25 mm long amphipod crustacean sampled near Elephant Island, Antarctic Peninsula, during the Polarstern cruise ANTXXIII-8 to the Larsen A/B area. The collapse of two ice shelves in Antarctica has exposed an exquisite seabed ecosystem, including species of crustaceans and marine anemones that had never been identified, researchers said 25 February 2007. The insight into Antarctica's hidden marine world came from the breakup of the Larsen A and B ice shelves, 12 and five years ago respectively, that later formed huge icebergs.
